Hi,
       I started working for mailman. As a first step I downloaded the
source code of mailman2.1.19. When I'm trying ./configure, it is
showing the following error.

checking that Python has a working distutils... configure: error:

***** Distutils is not available or is incomplete for /usr/bin/python
***** If you installed Python from RPM (or other package manager)
***** be sure to install the -devel package, or install Python
***** from source.  See sec. 15.1 of the Installation Manual for
***** details


I installed Distutils, but still it is showing the error


and when I try the command

% useradd -c’’GNU Mailman’’ -s /no/shell -d /no/home -g mailman mailman

Usage: useradd [options] LOGIN
       useradd -D
       useradd -D [options]

Options:
  -b, --base-dir BASE_DIR       base directory for the home directory of the
                                new account
  -c, --comment COMMENT         GECOS field of the new account
  -d, --home-dir HOME_DIR       home directory of the new account
  -D, --defaults                print or change default useradd configuration
  -e, --expiredate EXPIRE_DATE  expiration date of the new account
  -f, --inactive INACTIVE       password inactivity period of the new account


Please help me.

Thanks,
Prudhvee.
